Well, a job is a job. And anything that keeps you from sleeping on the streets is a win

You know what happens when you get out? YOU END UP IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER

The US Army has an entire IT job field. After basic training you go to beautiful Fort Gordon, Georgia and learn about computers and IT systems

Had a few buddies in the IT field and they generally had easy jobs predeployments

I had a bunch of 25 series friends. They got out and used all the certificates they got while in to get nice cushy jobs on the outside

Basically what most of mine did

Others..not so much lol

Lol it’s a good strategy. Looking back I should have chosen a soft skill MOS. Finding bombs was fun but I was on the struggle bus for awhile when I got out.

Yeah I get that, "things go boom" on an application doesn't sound good lol

Lol for three years it didn’t. Then I lucked into what I do now. I handle an explosives detection dog and the money is pretty good. They saw “spent 6 years looking for IEDs and shit” and called me the day after I submitted my resume

Good shit lol

My situation was more of a "I gave up" shit show

But I'm getting my life squared away now

I’ve been there.

It’s ok to give up for a little bit. Take a breather and figure shit out. It’s entirely different to stay in the self pity party.

No doubt. Can't stay in the hole forever, took me a bit to realize it

But you realized it. Some people never do and just wind up becoming shells of themselves

True enough

Basically came to an agreement with myself, either i get my life squared away in the next two years or I just go off the grid and become a war touring merc

And for legal reasons that's a joke

lol

My endgame is to go back overseas for a PMC

K9 guys make some serious cash. Like SOC is paying K9 handlers 300+ bucks a day

Nice

Buddy of mine and I are thinking or starting a security firm at some point. *holds out can for donations* but it's a slow process atm lol

Yeah there’s a bunch of hoops and shit to jump through

Why the fuck we have fb group now?

Idk might as well haha

What gave it away?
